Chapter 9: The Secret Room Treasure Chest (Part II)

Tong Lanshan nodded and said: "I believe your words, but Xiong's promise not to hurt is to fart, but it's a pity that he let him run away." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhu Yushi said: "If Madame has no other instructions, please go back to the room to rest, there are still some things to deal with in the future." Tong Lanshan nodded sadly and said, "The life of the slave family depends on you, I didn't expect that in the end, I would let the big enemy intercede for me, it's really a trick." Zhu Yushi said: "I must do my best." Tong Lanshan took two steps and stopped again: "By the way, the slave family has something to ask you to return to Lei Zhen, and the slave family can no longer keep it for him." With that, she took a dark yellow key from her sleeve and placed it on the table, and then left.

Zhu Yushi picked up the key, started the heavy one, and took a closer look at the fact that it was made of pure gold, which showed how precious the things that could be opened were. Zhu Yushi's heart moved, and he glanced at Shi Tong, Shi Tong's eyes lit up, stared at the key tightly, and nodded slightly to Zhu Yushi. Zhu Yushi put away the key and said to Zhuo Chong: "It's okay here, you go and see if your father needs help." Zhuo Chong hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, the child is leaving." ”

After he left, Shi Tong stepped forward and said, "Let me see the key." Zhu Yushi handed him the key, Shi Tong took it in his hand, his eyes showed a fiery look, and his voice was excited: "This is the key to the iron box in Lei Zhen's study, and the secret of my wife and daughter's hiding may be inside" Zhu Yushi said: "Let's try it." ”

The two quietly came to the door of the study, and saw that the door and window were locked, and the two did not dare to break the lock forcibly, so they came to the courtyard and flew up to the room, uncovered the roof tiles and jumped in. Because the guards in the village had been withdrawn, no one could see them.

Everything in the study is normal, but the so-called iron box can not be found. Shi Tong frowned and said: "Strange, last time the Qin brothers were drunk, they obviously mentioned that there was a secret iron box in the study, how could there be none?" Zhu Yushi closed a cabinet full of scrolls and said: "If the iron box is really so important, it must be stored by Lei Zhen in a secret place, and then look for it, by the way, why didn't you see the Qin brothers?" Shi Tong said lightly: "They are all dead." Zhu Yushi looked back in amazement and said, "All died in battle?" Shi Tong nodded and said, "Die next to me." Zhu Yushi said: "Don't you have a help?" Shi Tong glanced at him and said strangely: "Why do I want to help? They were sent by Lei Zhen to monitor me, and it would be better if someone slaughtered me for me." Zhu Yushi was surprised: "Even if you are fake masters and apprentices, you will get along for a long time, how can you watch them die, it's too cruel." Shi Tong said coldly: "I reminded you not to be a woman's kindness, so don't worry about my affairs." ”

Zhu Yushi sighed secretly and continued to look for the iron box. After another quarter of an hour, Shi Tong said angrily: "That's it, it doesn't seem to be here, let's go." Zhu Yushi looked intently at the decorative cabinet attached to the wall, there were all kinds of antiques and treasures on the cabinet, and said slowly: "Did you find something wrong?" Shi Tong looked at the cabinet and said: "What's wrong?" Zhu Yushi said: "I have the impression that this study room should be larger than the space inside from the outside, if I feel right, there should be a small space behind this wall, and the opening mechanism should be this cabinet." Shi Tongxi said: "Then what are you waiting for, come and see." The two checked everything on the cabinet, all of which were useless, Zhu Yushi carefully stroked along the cabinet with the palm of his hand, and did not miss anything, when he touched the bottom of the lattice, he suddenly touched a slight gap, Zhu Yushi said, "It's here." I tried to buckle the crack but didn't move, so I pressed down lightly, and suddenly heard a "clatter" sound, and a small door popped up on the counter, and a long handle appeared in the small square inside.

The two of them knelt on the ground to observe the handle, Shi Tong just wanted to reach out to twist it, but Zhu Yushi hurriedly stopped: "Wait a minute." Shi Channel: "What's wrong?" Zhu Yushi said: "I have seen similar mechanisms in the tunnels of Linzi, the handle can be twisted left or right, the direction can be twisted to open the secret door, and the wrong mechanism will be locked, we only have one chance, and we must not screw it wrong." Because this matter was related to the fate of Shi Tong's wife and daughter, he also began to get nervous, and said, "Do you know how this mechanism is broken?" Zhu Yushi shook his head and said: "I don't know, although this is not a complicated and fancy mechanism, but sometimes it is more effective than those mechanisms, even if the master of the mechanism is helpless in a short time." Shi Tong licked his dry lips and said, "Anyway, it's all about luck, so just twist it." Zhu Yushi pondered: "Although the mechanism is designed like this, there should be a way to see the clues. Shi Channel: "What's the clue?" Zhu Yushi didn't answer, took out the fire fold from his body, lit it and put it at the twist to observe carefully: "If the mechanism is newly made, then you can only fight luck, fortunately, this mechanism has been built for many years, and Lei Zhen often uses it, so that the iron twist left scratches after many twists, as long as we can see the direction of the scratches, we know which direction Lei Zhen usually screws." ”

Shi Tongxi said: "It's really yours, can you see it?" Zhu Yushi looked at it again and again, and felt the direction of the scratch with his fingers, and touched it several times before he said: "It should be to the left, you can also touch it." Shi Tong also touched it and sighed: "My hands are all calluses left after practicing knives, and I can't feel anything, so I'll listen to you." Zhu Yushi smiled bitterly: "In case I make a mistake in judgment and Brother Shi loses the opportunity to reunite with his family, then I am really ashamed of Brother Shi." Shi Tong said in a deep voice: "Shi is not a person who doesn't know what to do, you are willing to take such a big risk to help me, whether you succeed or not, Shi is grateful, come on." Without hesitation, he screwed to the left.

The handle makes a "clucking" sound and then becomes unresponsive. Zhu Yushi frowned and said, "Is it really wrong?" Shi Tong was also silent, and his face was extremely solemn. Suddenly, there was a "creak", the cabinet shook slightly, Zhu Yushi gently pulled the cabinet with his hand, and opened it together with the cabinet and the wall like a sliding door, and there was a small closed space inside.

The two of them were overjoyed, and when they entered the secret room, they saw an iron box on the only table. The iron box is one foot long, the steel plate is two fingers thick, and it weighs a thousand catties. The iron box is flat and square, with no extra decoration, and the doors and locks are made of cream-yellow diamonds, so even the most powerful weapons are hard to shake, and there is no other way except the key. Zhu Yushi picked up the heavy King Kong lock, inserted the key into the lock hole, twisted slightly, the King Kong lock opened in response, and after removing the lock, he opened the door of the King Kong box. No one expected that there were only eight booklets in such a valuable iron box, which shows how important the contents of the booklets are.

Zhu Yushi took out all the booklets, and saw that the first black and old booklet had the words "Cold Injury Gong" written on it, which must be the martial arts secret book practiced by Lei Zhen. He casually put it aside, there was no name on the second booklet, and then flipped through it, and saw that it was densely recorded with the date, money, and agreement of bribes to nearly 100 officials of Jinqi and Qi, because many names were repeated, so he memorized a whole book, and in the process of flipping through it, Zhu Yushi was surprised to find that the name of Wanyan Wushu appeared in it many times, could it be that he and Lei Zhen were also secretly in contact. Because I didn't have time to look at it carefully, I put it aside, and picked up the third booklet, the title of the book is "List of Modern Jianghu Masters", after opening the first page, there is a table of contents and names, Ling Junlai, Chu Laike, Ni Hongyan, Lin Lingsu, Turen Wang, Lu Fei, Zhao Hengshan, Jiang Feiyan, Gu Yao, Liu Shaoqing and other masters have records, and there are Luo Tianchu and his own names in the last few names of the catalog, he couldn't help but turn to the page of Luo Tianchu, and found that each character used a whole page to record his personal information. Luo Tianchu's information is:

Character information: Luo Tianchu, male, about twenty-one years old, the owner of Blood Knife Castle, born in the market, parents unknown, unmarried, fiancΓ©e is the daughter of Ling Junlai and You Jingyao, Ling Xue'er.

Characteristics of martial arts: swordsmanship is a school of "Demon Suppression Sword Classic", internal strength is Shaolin "Yijin Jing", all have been promoted to the realm of Dacheng, fist and foot kung fu in general, and other weapons in general.

Personality characteristics: pride and righteousness, quick thinking, broad-minded, jealous and hateful, dislike women, not greedy for money.

Weaknesses: None.

Evaluation: Promising future, the best of rookies, a natural leader, a military genius, best to be a friend, not an enemy.

Zhu Yushi thought to himself, I don't know who collected this information, if Luo Tianchu knew that others had such a high evaluation of him, he would definitely be overjoyed. He was eager to see the next page that described himself, but he resisted his curiosity and went to the fourth. It is a Tao Hongjing's handwritten transcription of the "Tao Te Ching", Zhu Yushi does not know who Tao Hongjing is, and does not care, what caught their attention is the fifth "Horse Gang Personnel Record", which is the only booklet related to the horse gang, carefully flipped, and soon found Shi Tong's name from it, which records the time when Shi Tong joined the gang, the position he resides, the important deeds he has done, as well as martial arts, previous achievements and other information, the last line is marked with a line of small characters, "Wife Tibetan Nanling Lingju Temple, female residence in the north set of Laojun Temple."

Shi Tong was shocked when he saw it, and said excitedly: "I know these two places, I'll go find them now." Zhu Yushi was not interested in looking through the other three booklets, so he quickly put the books back, closed the door, locked the King Kong lock, returned to the study to put the cabinet back in place, and reassembled the mechanism.

The two jumped out of the study, put back the tiles, and after leaving the gang leader Dazhai, Shi Daodao: "I'll leave now, you take care of yourself, and I'll come back to help you after you settle them." Zhu Yushi said: "I'll go with you." Shi Channel: "You are now the only person in charge of the gang, and you will continue to do it for a long time in the future, and you can't leave this juncture." Zhu Yushi said: "Okay, don't come back after rescuing your sister-in-law and girl, live your life well." Shi Channel: "Shi never owes favors, you have helped me fulfill my long-cherished wish for many years, my life is yours, and you can face Lei Zhen's questioning alone." ”

Zhu Yushi said: "Lei Zhen will do everything to achieve his goal, I am afraid that he will do something to blackmail Brother Shi, this is a rare opportunity for freedom, Brother Shi should not miss it." Shi Tong looked at him deeply and said with a smile: "Although I have repeatedly blamed you for your kindness, this is also the reason why I admire you the most. Your kindness and righteousness, for the sake of others quality in today's troubled times is like a light in the dark night, Shi has benefited a lot, ashamed, and you are really a great blessing to be friends. Zhu Yushi also smiled: "I will never dare to be under it." Shi Channel: "Don't talk nonsense, after I rescue them, I should live in seclusion in the Chunming Valley fifty miles to the south, no matter what trouble you encounter, just let someone bring a message, no matter how many miles away, Shi will definitely arrive." Zhu Yushi arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Brother Shi, for saying hello to my sister-in-law and girl." Shi Tong also arched his hand and said: "Definitely, take care." ”

Looking at Shi Tong's gradually disappearing back, Zhu Yushi felt a burst of melancholy in his heart, withdrew from the rivers and lakes, and lived in seclusion in the paradise is his heartfelt desire, but the reality always backfires, even if he can see through the right and wrong in the red dust, he still can't let go, but as long as he has hope, even if he is tired and tired, he can bear it, don't people live for hope, as long as people live, hope can be realized, how much he hopes to find Zhu Zhirui.
